No longer are the gym leaders from the upcoming Nintendo DS games Pokémon Black & White 2 a mystery. As of today, we now know exactly who the eight trainers are that you'll need to take down to reach the Elite 4. The group mostly consists of returners from the previous games, but there are a couple of new ones too (who you'll already be familiar with if you've been keeping up with the news).

Before I provide a quick run-down on them, please keep in mind they are in no particular order as the official order is not yet known. Also, a number have not yet had a official art for the new games released, so we've provided art from the previous games.

BurghBug-type gym leader

ShizuiWater-type gym leader

HomikaPoison-type gym leader

ElesaElectric-type gym leader

ClayGround-type gym leader

SkylaFlying-type gym leader

CherenNormal-type gym leader

DraydenDragon-type gym leader

So, if you're quick, you might have noticed who has gone missing: Lenora, Cilan/Chili/Cress, and Iris. It's likely they'll still appear in the games, but this is, as of yet, unconfirmed. Considering Lenora also ran a museum and Cilan, Chilli and Cress were waiters, their reappearances are highly likely. Iris, on the other hand, is a complete mystery at this stage. Considering her important role in the Pokémon anime series, however, there's little doubt she'll appear somewhere.
